County Cricket Field Day For Bowlers On Wet Pitches
London, July 3.

The finest wicket harvest came at Gillingham where the Kent pacemen burly Dave Halfyard and 34-year-old Fred Ridgway routed Leices- tershire for 39 to give their side, dismissed for a meagre 61 yesterday, an unexpected first innings lead and bonus points.
